E90 -- LCI Eyelid for Custom Headlights

Anyone know where to buy a set of these eyelids?

I am putting led rings in my pre-lci headlights and want to put this in there as well

the first one is very hard to find. If I recall correctly, there's a ebay seller from Uk sells that.


the second one is a repainted stock eyelids. I'm pretty sure that the eyelids belong to e90 LCI halogen headlights.

Great thanks, yeah after a little research I noticed that the second one is the LCI Halogen.

Do you know if that shrowd will work on a pre-lci xenon? Im assuming its the same shape since the e90 can take lights that are lci/prelci and halogen/xenon.

Regarding the first one I have searched on ebay but there is so much clutter with people posting the same thing over and over again that makes it difficult

Yours sure are nice I just cant justify $1600 for headlights when I can make them myself for a fraction of the cost. I bought a spare headlight to practice on and I successfully got the lens open

I don't know what size that shroud is nor knowing the size of the projector. But there are plenty of different shrouds made for different projector sizes.

I was actually referring to this.

I am wondering if the LCI Halogen "shroud/trim" or whatever you want to call it will fit into a Pre-LCI Xenon headlight.

gotcha. Sorry I haven't tried to test fit that part on pre-lci xenon. I don't have a good answer for you


However, I was able to source e90 eyelids (for pre lci e90 headlights). I'm about to order a handful of pairs to see how well they fit.

They fit just like shown in the OP's photo. I'm customizing a pair for an e90 pre-lci as we speak. I'm adding LED to the corner to mimic the OEM led.

I have only two more pairs available and they are rare as gold. I cannot find any manufacturer who can produce these as of yet (I'm still looking tirelessly). With that being said, they're $100 shipped a pair.

the shroud of LCI halogen is slightly larger than pre-lci xenon. There are some other differences as well. SO to answer your question it's not easily interchangeable. Fabrication will be required to fit it.
